Ernest Sonnenberg, mayoral committee member for utility services, says the City has three deep-sea marine outfalls which have been in operation for the past 30 years. “These are located off the coasts off Hout Bay, Green Point and Camps Bay. Since the commissioning of these marine outfalls, the City has had the necessary permits and licences to discharge wastewater at a depth of about 30 metres, and a distance of 1.7km from the shoreline,” he says. Sonnenberg says with the promulgation of the Integrated Costal Management Act (IC- MA) came the new requirement that a coast- al water discharge permit (CWDP) be issued by the department of environmental affairs (DEA) in order to regularise these outfalls under the new regulatory authority. “Notwithstanding that ‘new’ licences were issued by the then department of water affairs in 2011 for these existing marine out- falls, the City is required by the ICMA to un- dertake a public participation process as part of the application for the CWDP,” he says. Sonneberg says this process has been the source of confusion around whether the out- falls were licensed. “The necessary licences and permits for these outfalls have been in place for the past 30 years,” he says. There are 14 major deep-sea outfalls in South Africa, and many around the world in- cluding California, New York and Barcelo- na. Sonnenberg says the coordinates for the fi- nal discharge point in the sea are 34°03’52.08”S, 18°20’36.04”E. However, this is not a new facility. Sonnenberg says this new process is sim- ply the City bringing operations in line with the new regulatory framework. He further says that sewage is preliminar- ily treated, regular monitoring on three coastlines takes place, and there is no indica- tion or evidence that the outfalls impact neg- atively on the marine surf zones. “The wastewater is from domestic use, commercial and the fishing industry. Solids, toilet paper and objects larger than 3mm are removed from the water before discharge,” he says. To assess the impact of the Hout Bay dis- charge on the marine environment, the City of Cape Town employs the services of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Re- search (CSIR). To date, the CSIR has found no significant impact due to the operations of the Hout Bay sea outfall. A few months ago, the City released press statement about a public health advisory on the coastal water quality of Hout Bay beach. However, Sonnenberg says it’s likely that the situation a few months ago was caused by the pollution of the Disa River as well as stormwater run-off during rainfall. “This was not related to the marine out- fall,” he says. Asked if the E. coli levels at Hout Bay beach stabilised and what remedial action was taken by the City at the time, Sonnen- berg says E. coli levels have stabilised. “Sea water usually returns to normal within three days due to natural dilution and or dispersion,” he says.

Get your street on the boardCape Town will soon have its very own ver-sion of the popular boardgame Monopoly,featuring recognisable street names and lo-cal top spots.

Residents are being given a chance to votefor their favourite property.

Regional versions of the Monopoly board-game have been produced for the last 15years and is licensed in 103 countries, withSouth Africa next on this illustrious list.

Capetonians will be encouraged to takepart in the selection process to choosewhichrecognisable city hotspotswill appear on thefinal board, to be on shelves in November.

Monopoly representative Dan Taylor saysseveral boardgames have been created forcities such as Sydney and Ibiza.

“It’s my job to create a game that the peo-ple of Cape Town will be proud of and playwith their families formany years,” he says.

Cape Town Tourism spokesperson NicoleBiondi says the organisation is hoping to see

some of Cape Town’s “big 7” attractions onthe board, such as TableMountain, the V&AWaterfront, Kirstenbosch and Groot Con-stantia.

“Although the game will be predominant-ly sold and distributed in Cape Town, we’rehoping Capetonians will get excited andstart sharing it with friends and familiesaround the world,” she says.

This process will run for the next threeweeks.

There will also be localised “CommunityChest” and “Chance” playing cards, so resi-dents are also encouraged to submit uniqueCapetonian phrases andwords to be used forthis purpose.

Cape Town was selected as one of 40 citiesto be featured in theworld edition ofMonop-oly, prepared for later this year for thegame’s 80th anniversary.V Email your suggestions to capetown@winning­moves.co.uk or at Monopoly Cape Town on Facebook.

Pupils go to school to learn, but in doing sothey must learn in a safe and conducive en-vironment.

The Education Safety and GovernanceAssociation (ESGA) hosted a breakfast forschools to emphasise the importance ofsafety at schools at Southern Sun in New-lands on Friday last week.

The organisation admits that though it isdifficult to manage safety at schools, teach-ers and those in charge of the pupils mustprepare to protect their schools and makesure that pupils are safe at all times.

The aimof the launchwas to let educatorsknow that even though there are challengesin their schools, ESGA is there to help.

ESGA gives workshops on how to dealwith different challenges a school mightface – be it drugs, gangs or bullying.

Other than that they also focus on occupa-tional health. This is where they train edu-cators on the importance of hygiene aroundthe school, safe buildings, and first aid.

John Buswell, ESGA’s managing direct-or, said schools focus somuch on the curric-ulum that they forget the importance ofsafety at school.

“Though the number one goal is that chil-dren must learn, they must do so in a safeenvironment. The workshops we offerequip educators tomake sure the pupils arein a safe environment.Wewant to keep chil-dren safe. These are the things that they arenot taught at college but they are very im-portant, so we develop those areas for thesafety of our kids,” he says.

It was highlighted that for schools to ig-

nore health and safety issues is not an op-tion.

Paul Londal, ESGA’s general manager,said schools must be a safe place for all.“Schools are easy targets for drug pushers.Safety in schools is a very complex issue butwe must create a safe environment for ev-eryone who goes there. We are here to helpyou put those safety measures in place.Safety measures mustn’t be neglected.

“It’s a broad issue involving swimmingpools at the school, buildings as well as howto put those pupils in the bus when they aregoing for a trip.Wewant everyone to be safeand that’s why we are encouraging educa-tors to take part in the works schools.”

ESGA are hosting an anti-bullying work-shop atGroote SchuurHighSchool inNewl-ands and they are inviting other schools totake part in the workshop as it will tackleissues around bullying. Some of the thingsto be discussed will include the definitionof bullying, identification of the 11 types ofbullying, understanding the impact of bul-lying on pupils, symptoms of bullying be-haviour, the pupil who is bullied and devel-opment of an anti-social bullying policy.

Caradale Primary’s principal Ezra Car-else, who attended, adds that safety atschools is of paramount importance.

“When parents send their children toschool they place them in our care. So it isvery important to make sure that whilstthey are learning they do so in a safe envi-ronment. This can’t be compromised andwe are glad that there are people who arewilling to help usmake our schools safe. It’sa good thing and we will also take the balland runwith it tomake sure that our pupilsare safe at all times,” he says.

Schools must bea safe placefor everyone

A four-year-old child died in acar accident on Prince GeorgeDrive in Diep River on Sundaylast week.Captain Angie Latchman,

spokesperson of the Wynbergpolice cluster, says thepolice re-ceived a report of an accident atthe corner of Prince George andDe Waal drives in Diep River atabout 10:20.“Initial investigations at the

scene have established that thedriver of a charcoal grey Hyun-dai was driving along PrinceGeorge Drive with two passen-gers, when it is alleged that sheturned around to speak to one ofthe passengers, takingher focusoff the road ahead,which result-ed in a collision with a markedtraffic vehicle,” Latchman says.The child was a passenger in

the Hyundai and was declareddead on the scene by attendingparamedics.“The two drivers and the sec-

ond passenger were taken tohospital where they were treat-ed and later discharged,” Latch-man says.A case of culpable homicide

has been registered at Diep Riv-er police station for investiga-tion.In a separate incident a do-

mestic worker was followed toher place of employment inSouthfield and robbed at gun-point on Friday 29 May at 13:00.

Warrant officer Keith Chan-dler, spokesperson of the DiepRiver police, says the domesticworker was already on herguard on her way to work.“The domestic worker saw

two suspicious-looking men fol-lowing her and she ran andopened the perimeter gate of theresidence she works at, but bythe time she had unlocked thesafety gate the suspects werenext to her,” he says.One of the suspects pointed at

her with a pistol and kept her inthe lounge while the other sus-pect searched the house.“They fled with computer

equipment, cellphones and oth-er small items.”A neighbour saw the suspects

leaving the property andthought something was amissand contacted the police.“The neighbour also contact-

ed the owners of the house whowere met by the police on theirarrival. The Diep River policewere on the scene within min-utes and issued an ‘APB’,” hesays.No shots were fired and no-

one was injured in the robbery.A case of armed robbery wasopened at Diep River police sta-tion.Chandler says the forensics

team was on the scene and re-covered evidence.Anyonewith further informa-

tion can contact detective War-rant Officer Steven Young on021 710 7347.

Child dies in car crashSouth Road not evictedIn an effort to build “a construct-ive and meaningful relationshipwith residents” the City of CapeTown has stopped its plan to evictits tenants in South Road in Wyn-berg for now.In a statement the City says that

it was decided to withdraw the no-tices terminating the lease agree-ments with the 26 tenants who livein City-owned properties, and in-stead to find a more “amicable so-lution”.According to the statement the

City does not want to “litigateagainst the residents of CapeTown”.Brett Herron, mayoral commit-

tee member for transport, says:“Should it seem in the end that liti-gation is unavoidable, we onlywant to proceed once we are con-vinced that all possible avenues forfinding an amicable solution havebeen exhausted.”Herron says in this matter,

though, the City is confident thatit can still findaway toavoid costlylitigation about a major transportproject that is ultimately to thebenefit of the residents.“This is why the City has taken

the decision to withdraw the noti-ces terminating the lease agree-ments of the tenants residing inCity-owned properties along SouthRoad in Wynberg,” he says.According to the statement the

City instructed its legal represent-atives to inform the lawyers whoare representing the South RoadFamilies Association and they didso on Thursday last week.“We have given an undertaking

to take no further action againstthese tenants until we have con-cluded the public participationprocess about the concept design ofMyCiti phase 2A, otherwise knownas the Lansdowne/Wetton corri-dor, considered all of the publiccomment and presented a recom-mendation to the council for a deci-sion later this year.”Even the tenants who are al-

ready in the process of being evict-ed due to outstanding debt weregiven a reprieve until the councilmakes its decision.The City urges the South Road

Families Association to make useof the public participation processto air their views, and to providetheir input in writing on the possi-bility of implementing the pro-posed MyCiTi trunk route in the

Wynberg area without making useof the South Road road scheme.The deadline for receiving writ-

ten comment has been extended to13 July.During this public participation

process, transport officials willmake available the assessments ofthe alternative routes proposed bythe South Road Families Associa-tion, as well as the outcome there-of.The open days for residents in

WynbergandClaremont are sched-uled for:

. 15 June from 16:00 to 20:00 atAlphen Centre, Constantia

. 15 June from 16:00 to 20:00 atClaremont civic centre

. 17 June from 16:00 to 20:00 atthe Church on Main Road, Wyn-berg.

The 26 City tenants in South Road have been given a reprieve.

Going up Lion’s Head in heelsGARY VAN DYK@gvdcapejazz

Two young ladies are taking their love forfashion to greater heights on Tuesday 16

June when they climb Lion’s Head – inheels!

Closet Chat is an online fashion talkshow, and the founders, Loren Hendersonfrom Bonteheuwel and Loren Loubser fromDiep River, will be stepping out in stylewhen they tackle the tough walk on Tues-day.

Loren Henderson explained that theystarted the online talk show to highlight andencourage individual style, trends andyoung designers and entrepreneurs.

“Through fashion, we aim to inspire, en-courage and develop youth in Cape Townand surrounding areas,”she says.

Loren Loubser is excited about theirproject to celebrate Youth Day and wantsyouth to join them and their team on theday.

“We are looking for young people to joinus on our quest because this campaign willfocus on the youth of Cape Town and sur-rounding areas in an effort to encouragethem to ‘step out’ of their situations, chal-lenges and circumstances. There is also theopportunity for all in the city to support usby helping us to support the Put Foot Foun-dation by pledging money to assist them intheir projects.

“The Put Foot Foundation is a volunteerbased, proudly South African organisationthat tackles the need of the daily plight andindignity of children with no shoes.

“What better way to do it than steppingup in style,” she laughs. “Individuals can al-so come on board as pledgers and even joinus on the walk on the day.”

Loren Loubser points out that they wel-come all donations but encourage business-es to jump in and sponsor as little as R1 forevery step they take in their heels.

“The rough estimate is that it takes 2 800steps to the top but we will welcome all do-nations to help this organisation that do-nates brand new school shoes to as manyneedy children as possible, allowing theyouth to walk to school and feel proud withtheir new school shoes and ready to be em-powered through education.”

Closet Chats will be filming the entire ex-perience, which will be aired on their You-

Tube channel.The walk will start at 09:00 at the foot of

Lion’s Head and the organisers encourageparticipants to take up the challenge ofwearing fashion heels, but sneakers andhiking boots will also be welcomed.

For more information contact Loren Hen-derson on 076 318 3329, 076 592 7038, [email protected] or check out theblog www.stylebyloren.wordpress.com.

Strong families protect childrenWith the hope of entrenching a culture of

action and accountability for chil-dren’s rights and protection SOS Children’sVillages are drawing attention to the plightof 11.4m South African children who are liv-ing in extreme conditions of poverty, abuseand neglect.Child ProtectionWeekwas celebrated last

week.For over 30 years, SOSChildren’s Villages

has been providing homes for abandonedand orphaned children in South Africa andimplementing family-strengthening pro-grammes within impoverished communi-ties to ensure children don’t fall from theirfamily safety net in the first place.Mosa Moremi, a children’s rights advo-

cate at SOS Children’s Villages South Afri-ca, explains the burden of HIV/Aids “is tear-ing apart family structures and leaving ourmost vulnerable children exposed”.

“The alarming rates of women abuse is al-so a very worrying factor, since violenceagainstmotherswill have direct and seriousconsequences for the children living in sucha dysfunctional family environment,” Mo-remi says.SOS Children’s Villages work to protect

the rights of orphaned, abandoned and vul-nerable children, providing homes withfamilies who care. Moremi says that the de-mand for this care surpasses the supply, andthe organisation realises that urgent inter-vention is needed to strengthen family unitswithin the community.“Through this realisation, the family-

strengthening programme was born. It of-fers prevention and early intervention ser-vice. Our programme is focused on strength-ening and rebuilding families withincommunities with the end objective of self-sufficiency,” Moremi says.

SOS Children’s Villages implement andsupport various programmes includingheathcare management, childhood develop-ment centres, community awareness cam-paigns, income-generating projects andworkshops to educate community memberson how to improve their circumstances.The community forums bring various

community-based organisations and localgovernment services together so that thecommunity can raise concerns about ser-vice delivery, safety and other issues.“Removinga child fromparental or family

care should be a last resort when it is clearthat the child may be in danger of having itsrights violated, and where there is no hopeof remediation at that time. Our aim is tokeep family units togetherwithin their com-munities where this is possible,” says Mo-remi.Moremi further says that the reality is

that widespread poverty have left manycommunities in crisis. High levels of unem-ployment, lowmorale, total lack of basic ser-vices and rampant corruption are leaving“our poor communities more vulnerablethan ever”.The family-strengthening programme, to-

gether with its partners, ensures that thesefamilies have access to basics such as food,shelter, clothing, education and access tohealthcare and government grants.“Child protection does, however, go much

further than providing for the basic needsof the child. We endeavour to educate thecommunity about the dangers lurking incommunities for children,” Moremi says.“We inform the community of the steps

that can be taken when there is abuse of anynature, whether physical, sexual or sub-stance abuse in their household or a neigh-bouring household,” explains Moremi.

Highlights of amendments

• Residential Tariffs: Overall revenue increase from the group is 10.82%,but individual customers will likely see different values based on actualconsumption. The difference between the average and the actual increase arisesfrom the recovery of the shortfall of revenue from the Lifeline Block 1 rate.

• A consumer receiving 450kWh per month will see the same percentageincrease irrespective of which tariff they are on,meaning there is no change tothe level of subsidy received by these consumers on the Lifeline tariff.

• Free Basic Electricity: Lifeline tariff customers receiving less than 250kWhpermonthon averagewill receive a free basic supply of 60kWh,with those receiving between250kWh and 450kWhpermonth on averagewill receive a free basic supply of25kWhpermonth.

• The Residential SSEG tariff gains a second block aligned to the Domestic TariffBlock 2 to prevent customers installing exceptionally small generators andreceiving a large reduction in account without actually generating any electricity.

• Small Power User 1 with Off Peak combination will be restricted to existingcustomers only from 1 July 2012. The Off Peak components also increase by anabove average amount as a step in the phasing out of this tariff.

• Small Power User 1 tariff receives a slight structural adjustment in line with theCost of Supply study outcomes.

• Time of Use tariffs restructured to ensure the Medium Voltage tariff at minimumhas parity with EskomMegaflex.

• Commercial tariffs see a slightly above average increase as a result of therecovery of the subsidy provided for the Atlantis TOU tariff.

NOTE: Monthly Service Charges are calculated as the Daily Service Charge multipliedby number of days in billing period.

ly practicing his Scottish ac-cent – so that peoplewill under-stand him when he makes hisEdinburgh debut in August.He delivers his increasingly

renowned comedy songswith abeautiful voice.“It’s hard to tell if you’ll

laugh or cry. But you’ll be gladyou came.”Tats is also the host of TV

ly working in the UK, dividing his time be-tween solo performances, directing, cham-bermusic, working as guest leader with fineorchestras and leading his own group.In 2007 he took a five-month sabbatical to

busk around the world. He used the trip tolaunch Musequality, a charity supportingmusic-education projects for disadvantagedchildren in developing countries. He re-mains deeply committed to encouragingyoung musicians in the developing world.Juritz was in Cape Town recently for a se-

ries of shows and visited the Beau SoleilMu-sic Centre in Kenilworth to work with theIfidyoli ensemble.

project and includes tuition on violin, viola,cello anddouble bass andother instruments.The Ifidyoli have enjoyed much success,

withmany players being afforded the oppor-tunity to attend lessons on weekdays, whenthey can also join in activities like theoryand aural classes.Some students have been able to take Mu-

sic as amatric subject and several have goneon to make careers in music. Some past Ifi-dyoli players have returned to teach at BeauSoleil.V For more information about the Beau Soleil MusicCentre call 021 761 1894 or email [email protected].

Have you ever felt like the wool is being pulled over youreyes?That is perhaps the best way to describe the collective

feeling of many Capetonians when it comes to propertydevelopment.While no-one would for a minute say development is

a bad thing, decisions seem to be made between councilofficials and developers. The contributions of the public,the community and even the neighbours seem to be castaside, applied onlywhere it is absolutely necessary or noteven asked for in the first place.Too often, neighbours are fobbed off with the lines “It’s

within the property zoning” or “Due process was fol-lowed”.But as a transparent administration, is it not the job

of council to give residents information on which deci-sions are being made and why they are being made?And if they are, as they say, a “caring and inclusive

city”, one would hope they would listen to the opinionsof those living within their administration.Yet we witness the opposite on a regular basis.Pensioners living in council flats along De Waal Drive

may be forced out to make way for a high-end residentialdevelopment.Public open space in Clifton is under threat of develop-

ment, which will include 40 homes, a hotel and shops.It’s not that we don’t want to see our city flourish, with

investment pouring in and infrastructure improving.But canyouexpect the local community towatchas gen-

trification spreads across the city, fromWoodstock to SeaPoint, and say nothing?Canyoureally expectus, in this ageof information flow,

to blindly sign off on developments ofwhichwehave beengiven absolutely no details?It’s time to come clean and declare what is being built,

where, and how it will affect those around it.

More adventure than I bargained forI joined the scouting movement as a cubin 2008. I moved up to Scouts at thebeginning of 2010. At the time I wasunaware of the life that lay before me.I thought I was joining a rather lame

movement, where I would spend myweekends tying knots, practising FirstAid and helping old ladies cross theroad.So I was quite surprised when I

realised what it really was.I have spent nights on Table Moun-

tain, slept in tents in the middle ofnowhere, spent ten days hiking throughthe Cederberg mountain range, sailed in

regattas at Simon’s Town and built andslept on rafts made from poles.Later in the year I will be travelling to

Japan for almost 20 days for the 23rdWorld Scout Jamboree. Thousands willbe attending, including the king ofSweden and Bear Grylls. I’ve done allthis, and I’m only 16.I’ve learnt leadership, which in these

times is more essential than ever. I’velearnt to never give up and how to keepsmiling when times get bad. I’ve madelifelong friendships, met extraordinarypeople and visited places in Cape Townpeople have never heard of.

This is only half of the kind of stuffthat awaits you when you become aScout.My life changed and became an

adventure. For all those who think theyare up for the scouting adventure, join.

TAMING THE TEEN

How to fail effectivelyGAVIN FISH

Fight with your parents.Use phrases like “Of course I am study-

ing, what do you think I am doing?” or,“Relax, Dad, you are far too tense, I havegot plenty of time” or “I am on a studybreak, Mom, no-one can study forever.”Slam your door; be obnoxious and rude.

When your parents leave you alone, youwill have succeeded in your mission.

ProcrastinateDelay, delay, delay! Find other, nicer

things to do, wait until the absolute lastminute before starting studying.Spend longer on your cellphone, in the

shower, at the gym, startwatching theNa-tional Geographic channel because it is“relevant to what I need to be studying,Mom”.Examine your skin, start a new novel

– the thicker the better – procrastinate.

Believe the voices in your head“You can’t do this, you have never un-

derstood it, you never will, so why try?”“I don’t know where to start.”“Hey relax, you can always pass at the

end of the year. June doesn’t count, thereis plenty of time.”“You will always get a low D no matter

how hard you try.”

Be disorganisedEnsure that you have lost at least two

of your textbooks or notebooks. Be carefulnot to stick your notes in and definitelynot in the correct order.Ensure that you are unsure what you

have to study.Stay at home in the last few days before

you write to catch up on the work you ha-ven’t started to study yet.

Pretend you are studyingOpen your textbook, read it occasional-

ly, don’t underline, highlight, write downkeywords, revise difficult sections, teachthe work back to yourself or use the notestaken in class.Do it on your bed at an angle as close

to completely horizontal as you can. Just

sort of read your textbook.

Ignore your goalsBetter still, don’t have any goals at all,

then you can’t be disappointed with yourmarks.Think of today only. Tomorrow,manya-

ne, we can worry about becoming a doc-tor, a physiotherapist, a teacher, a humanresource manager, an executive secre-tary.Later, not now.

Ignore the obviousDon’t ask for help with the fact that you

freeze up in exams with anxiety.Tell nobody that you are dealing with

emotional issues thatmake studying diffi-cult or impossible.

Blame someoneBlame anyone.Howabout the loadshed-

ding? That cold that you can feel comingon, just how bad your History, Science,Technology, Geography teacher is, the ex-am paper that sucked, the hall that wasjust too cold… Blame somebody!

At just 11 years old she is alreadyplayingin the big league, kicking the soccerball against grown women.

Andwithher dreamsalready coming true,Nabeelah Galant is setting even bigger onesfor her bright future in sport.The passionate soccer player from Rock-

lands has been playing competitively for thepast two years but started playing in thepark next to her house when she was justtwo.“My father played sports and one day he

taught me how to kick the ball in the park.Since then I liked playing the game,” shesays.“She is a natural,” says Riedewaan, her fa-

ther.Riedewaan also played soccer and did ath-

letics inhis youngerdays. The twonow traintogether every week.Nabeelah’s mother Fazlin says she is her

father’s superstar.“Sometimes he does not even make time

for me. She is his focus. Of all the coachesshe has, he is one of her best motivators,”she says.Riedewaan explains that he does not push

her too hard, working on scheduled train-ing. “We did squats and weights the one dayso the next we just took a jog,” he says.Nabeelah also does athletics and swim-

ming for various clubs.The busy sports fanatic juggles a hectic

training schedule but does not forget herschoolwork.Hermother says she does not knowwhere

she finds the time as she will soon join the

athletics team of her primary school.“Education is important and Nabeelah

knows that,” says her mother.The Santos player has high hopes for a

long career in sport. However, Fazlin says,Nabeelah knows the rules.“I have very strict rules for Nabeelah and

she knows it is education first. She says shewants to be on the soccer field so I told herto study into a soccer field,” says Fazlin.Nabeelah is not sure where her education

will lead her yet but she has high hopes forthe future. “I want to play for ManchesterUnited one day,” she says with a shy giggle.Although she supports the team she still

hopes to see herself wearing national col-ours in the next five years.Fazlin says she is such an inspiration for

the community.“Everywhere we go people tell us how in-

spired they are by her,” she says.The little go-getter started her own sport-

ing career when she approached the localsoccer club to join about two years ago.She playedwith the boys andwhen the op-

portunity rose to play for a local women’steam she jumped at the chance to showwhatshe’s got.Fazlin and Riedewaan agree that support

is very important.“We support her and we spend time with

her at the soccer field whenever she has amatch. This is what she wants to do and wewill be behind her every step of the way,”Fazlin says.Fazlin says they juggle a busy schedule,

ensuring both their children’s hobbies areseen to, but they would not change it for theworld.“She is 11 and already playing with grown

women,” Fazlin boasts, saying she has ma-tured beyond her years.Nabeelahwants to inspire others to follow

their dreams.“I want people to see that it is possible to

be anything you want to be,” she says.
